Families of moderate or limited means, who heretofore hesitated about purchasing cars, are coming into the automobile buying field In greater numbers than ever be fore, If records of the Kord Motor Company's Weekly Purchasing Plan may be taken as an indica tion. The plan, launched not quite two years ago, was started chiefly to give such people an opiwrtunity to enjoy the benefits and pleas ures of motor car transportation and those taking advantage of It are growing in numbers every day. It Is a simple, the prospec tive purchaser making weekly payment of an amount best suit ed to his Individual means, these payments becoming part ot a bank account until such time as the purchaser has a sufficient sum to take delivery of his car. Details of the operation of the plan, as just given out by the company, show that from a com paratively few daily enrollments during the first month, the num ber has steadily risen Qntll now more than seven hundred people are enrolling every day through out IJie country, a rather remark able public endorsement of the plan. The records also show that there are at present more than 1110.000 persons on the Weekly Purchase Plan roll and that more than 166,000 already have recelv I ed their cars under the plan. These figures seem to bear out ' predictions made when the plan I was inaugurated, that It would exert a wide Influence toward less ening extravagant. buying with its consquent embarassments, and in stead afford a practical means for car ownership In which all mem bers ot the family can participate.

Curtis, director of sales at the Oakland plant ot the Durant Mo tor Company of California, Indi cate that this little ear is going to shake all sales records on the Coast. "When we first decided to put the sport coupe in regular produc tion," says Curtis In a recent let- I ter to Kapp Brothers, local Star ! dealers,, "we did not. appreciate j Just what a sensation this little I model was going to be. "It has been a good many months since the first sport coupe made Its appearance and thous ands of them are now In the hands of owners. Everywhere it has been shown there has boen a steady Increase In - sales, until, with the Introduction of the new million dollar motor, the demand on the part of the public has de veloped Into a veritable landslide,' i so great In fact that we have been I at our wits ends to keep our dealers supplied. "The Star car was conceived In the midst of the greatest chan ges In automobile construction that the Indutitry has ever known. While the Star car was in the making, the Durant engineers had ; only to choose from thev great variety of wanted Improvements that were being offered for the approval of the buying public. "Star, therefore, stsn-id Its career with a big lead in the small car field. Through the foresight nf Durant engineers, even the earliest cars came out equipped with such universally accepted items as four-wh'l brakes, disc clutch, force feed engine lubrica tion, and as production grew to enormous figures they Were able to add such desirable extras at cord and full balloon tires as re gular factory equipment.

If for no other reason than to be in harmony with the spirit of the season. The results ot such manuul la bor are olten real gratuylng; In fact, inspire a kind ot priue of ownership which may have palled during the year. But if the car chances to be a couple of years old, there are some tell-tale marks that reveal age. It was because of the fact that ain aud sunshine will form rust on moat metals that the, engineers ot the Chevrolet Motor company set to work to liud a typ.i ot me tal that would not rust, The results ot their experi ments along this Una are . em bodied in the new Chevrolet in an airplane metal radiator shell, wnlch Is non-rusting because ot the composition ot the metal used and has all the beauty ot niultel. Like the Duco finish on this cut', this radiator shell actually lint: proves la lustre with rubbing ana age. There Is no possibility ot rub bing through the coating because the whole shell la made ot the same material. BUICK SHOW WILL ' START TOMOKKOW The Buick auto show, arranged by O. C.

Churchill, who for about 12 years baa been state superintendent of schools is being mentioned prom inently. for the presidency of the state normal school at Ashland when the school Is revived under an act ot the 1925 legislature. It is understood the number ot candi dates will be large and that many applications are already in the hand of the regents. While Ashland people and some others about the stale believe the school can be opened next Septem ber .this will probably be impos sible because of the time that will be required to construct the new class room building for which 1175,000 was appropriated. This makes It doebtful whether a presi dent will be elected by the state normal school regents priqr to 1326 and whether the school can start with its own faculty by the summer school session of - next year. Each year branch normal summer school sessions are held at Ashland and Pendleton and this program will again be followed this year. GRIMM. BROS. MILK BREAD delivered to all parts ot the city.
